    Lancer evo 8 on s2/vw

    I have a set of Brembos from an Evo 8 and was wondering if they will fit on a golf mk3 with the big reds adapters? These callipers run 320mm discs. Somebody must know.

    I have a friend at work with an evo 8 (awful ugly thing). His brembo's are axial mounted.
    You'd need radial mount brembos to use the RS2 big red carrier, which BTW is silly money for what it is.

      You'd need a complete custom made bracket to use these on your car.

      Radial mount as used easily on VAG cars;

          caliper carriers arent too hard to get fabricated. I can recommend BG developments in bromsgrove who did mine for me.

            Its just that i got them for a deal so i thought I might try to use them on one of my cars. They use nice 320mm discs too. Might be worth selling them and buying some porker ones equivalent. What porsche would they come of ie somethign that would let me use some 310-320mm discs.

            Id rather use a set of callipers that are available adapters on the market instead of getting company to fab me some as the time and overall cost would most liklely be more.

            Evos are ******* to work on too! Did a clutch on them the other day pig of a job.
